Birthday Gift Ideas for 'Coming of Age' Birthdays
For any child, a day seems like a lifetime, so to get to your 16th, 18th or 21st birthdays and finally ‘come of age’ can be the biggest milestone on your horizon! In most countries, these birthdays signal the end of adolescence and the beginning of adulthood. The law also sees it as a huge step and on reaching each of these ages you gain a little bit more legal responsibility.
Many cultures and countries celebrate some, or all, of these milestones; parties are held, gifts and presents are given. Traditionally, a keepsake or personalised birthday gift is bestowed that can be treasured forever. After all, you will only ever be these remarkable ages once! So what 16th birthday gifts could you give someone? Jewellery, such as a heart and necklace set is a common gift for young ladies and can be made even more special by having a message engraved on the item. Men often receive engraved tankards as an 18th birthday gift or even as a 21st birthday gift idea on either their 18th or 21st birthday which most immediately put to good use....

Parties are held, everyone is congratulating the birthday girl or boy and they look eagerly towards a great, promising future. Come your 30th and people often feel they shouldn’t make a big deal. But it should be the exact opposite! How many people get a chance to spoil themselves past 21? At 30, most of us have succumbed to responsibility – we may have children or a mortgage, and therefore have little excuse to focus on ourselves. All the more reason to shower gifts on said neglected soul and buy suitable 30th birthday gifts. Anything that serves no purpose other than to be enjoyed would be gratefully received. For women something with a personal message telling them how much they are valued. For men, presents that mean he can retreat to his inner child (and forget that mortgage!).
Then comes the fabulous 40s. 40th birthdays are rapidly becoming a big event in today’s world. There seems to be a growing need to celebrate the youth that is still inside all of us. 40th birthday gifts and presents for a 40th birthday that are a bit cheeky, or have an element of fun and humour would go down a storm! 50th birthday gifts are usually of a similar nature, though the tone might be slightly quieter! Someone celebrating a half-century will have accumulated lots of photographs and mementos, an ideal way of reminding the birthday girl/boy of these fabulous times could be to arrange them in a beautiful photo album or trinket keepsake box. ‘It’s the thought that counts’ is an everyday phrase, but it’s so true!
60th, 70th birthdays and beyond can be a little trickier – what do you give to the person who has everything? This is where personalised presents as 60th birthday gifts really come into their own.
Whatever the birthday milestone, although the person reaching it may not be thrilled about their age, they will love your gift and certainly appreciate the thought you put into selecting their present.
